Obviously I'm new here and I'm dredging up this thread.
My 2 kids have runny nose, gunky eyes, and runny poop. No, not technical terms, but I call it like I see it. They are roughly a month old, and we've had them for a week. I have no doubt we are using a different brand of milk replacer than the people before us, and were feeding 20oz twice a day, with two 10oz snacks between. Yesterday they started drinking warm water from a bowl, and seem to be acting just fine otherwise. They wander the yard tasting things, the doe more than the buck.
So I'm wondering if I should try what the OP's have suggested....that is, get some goat's milk from the store and gradually replace the powdered stuff with that? Or should I just go ahead and call the vet? Seems everything I read has something different, so I'm all kinds of confused!
